Success...
Well, after years of chasing info with no success, I had a local Militaria Club meeting at my house recently and an "older" member saw the revolver and when I pointed out the name Leon Riley, he simply said, "Oh Leon, he used to be the New Zealand S&W Importer many years ago" and he dropped a couple of names of people that I know, who would know who Leon was.
After contacting those people, they informed me that Leon has sadly passed away due to cancer, when he was quite young, and that he had indeed been to the S&W Armorers School and that he was personally know to Roy Jinks, so guess who I have finally sent an info request to.
Super stoked to finally be getting somewhere and thought you may be interested in an update.
Attached a small pic of my simple display of some of my bits and pieces for your viewing pleasure.
Cheers,
Nigel
